CANTON TOWNSHIP, Mich. — A 28-year-old woman may have kept the body of her roommate in their apartment for up to three weeks, police said. An anonymous caller told police in Wayne County's Canton Township on Tuesday night that the woman was living in the apartment with her dead roommate.

"Our detectives knocked at the door and the woman opened it and there is that odor, and you know right away what it is," Detective Rick Pomorski told The Detroit News.

The body of the woman, believed to be in her 20s, was found covered by items of clothing on the living room floor. The 28-year-old tenant was cooperative with police and accompanied them to headquarters for questioning. She is not under arrest, Pomorski said.

This woman must be either completely crazy, or had something to do with her death and wasn't able to get rid of the body. I'm probably leaning towards the first option, since I can't believe anyone who isn't crazy would be able to live with a smelly rotting corpse for that long.

Or maybe the woman who was hiding the body was in love with the deceased, and the deceased was really hot.

I've heard of traumatic events causing one to 'disassociate'... I wonder if that could be the case, here.

I know I would be a little freaked out if I found a dead roommate (assuming I didn't do it, of course).
